This was the first...I LOVED Molly's adjectives. This was the first book I read after I sat in on a one-day writing seminar with Dianne Jacob, so I'm fresh with "new writing tools," and read the book with a pencil and piece of paper so that I could jot down words I wanted to use later. :)<br /><br />I'm a little ADD, so I glossed over the research, but I did find the rest of the book to be enjoyable, and I definitely value my sense of smell now more than I used to.<br /><br />[K]Kimhttp://www.rusticgardenbistro.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045839859209910716.post-76828622079662312982012-04-01T12:25:55.969-04:002012-04-01T12:25:55.969-04:00Ha!

I appreciate my nose so much!<br /><br />I kind of like this idea of having a stand-in participate in the KR during the months I'm unable... hmmmm...AJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09621249689597886621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045839859209910716.post-22200259260285392212012-04-01T08:57:32.409-04:002012-04-01T08:57:32.409-04:00It's lovely that you, Erin, got to read and re...It's lovely that you, Erin, got to read and report on our Kitchen Reader book this month! Perhaps you would consider becoming a full time member? Hint, hint. ;-)<br /><br />I think you are not alone in feeling that the science sections were a bit too lengthy and dry. But I definitely have a new appreciation for my nose after reading this book!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435647248027246458noreply@blogger.com
